Hello David

Thank you for your reply. If Dragon is my only option I agree with you that the 
book is in fact cheaper then the program so I’ll trawl the web for a copy.

As far as I am aware only Dragon provide the capacity to take recorded content 
and convert it to Text. This is obviously not a free option so it might well be 
easier and cheaper to source the book from an alternative source. 

I have found that the existence of a perfect mp3 version is useful as a back up 
for scanned versions of books.
Like you I prefer the option to study with text versions.  For example I 
scanned Anna Lawson’s book on Discrimination Law  from the British    Library  
but also  got the RNIB Daisy  version  as well. It did not matter then so much 
if the scan produced occasional incomprehensible results as I could consult the 
Daisy/mp3 version in that event.

  Hello

  I have a technical book in MP3 audio format. It would be more convenient to 
me for t his to be in text format. Is this possible, and if so how would I do 
it please?
